CRITÉRIO DE ACEITAÇÃO : LP, PM, US e RX

ASME VIII Div.1 - Apêndice 8

Líquidos Penetrantes (LP)

Somente indicações > 1,6mm devem ser consideradas como relevantes.

Indicação linear: comprimento > 3 largura.

Indicações duvidosas devem ser reinspecionadas

Todas as superfícies devem estar livres de:

(a) indicações relevantes lineares ;

(b) indicações relevantes arredondadas maiores que 3/16 pol. (4,8 mm) ;

(c) quatro ou mais indicações relevantes arredondadas em linha separadas por 1/16pol. (1,6 mm) ou menos (de
borda a borda) ;

(d) uma indicação de uma imperfeição pode ser maior que a imperfeição , entretanto , o tamanho da indicação é a
base para a

avaliação da aceitação .

Partículas Magnéticas (PM)

Todas as superfícies devem estar livres de:

(a) indicações relevantes lineares ;

(b) indicações relevantes arredondadas maiores que 3/16 pol. (4,8 mm) ;

(c) quatro ou mais indicações relevantes arredondadas em linha separadas por 1/16pol. (1,6 mm) ou menos (de
borda a borda) ;

Ultra Som (US)

Imperfections which produce a response greater than 20% of the reference level shall be investigated to the extent
that the operator can determine the shape, identity, and location of all such imperfections and evaluate them in
terms of the acceptance standards given in (a) and (b) below.

(a) Indications characterized as cracks, lack of fusion, or incomplete penetration are unacceptable regardless of
length.

(b) Other imperfections are unacceptable if the indications exceed the reference level amplitude and have lengths
which exceed:

1⁄4 in. (6 mm) for t up to 3⁄4 in. (19 mm);

1⁄3t for t from 3⁄4 in. to 21⁄4 in. (19 mm to 57 mm);

3⁄4 in. for t over 21⁄4 in. (57 mm).

Where t is the thickness of the weld excluding any allowable reinforcement. For a butt weld joining two members
having different thicknesses at the weld, t is the thinner of these two thicknesses. If a full penetration weld includes
a fillet weld, the thickness of the throat of the fillet shall be included in t.

Radiografia Industrial (RX)

ASME Sec. VIII Div.2 Apêndice AI-510

AI-510 ACCEPTANCE STANDARDS FOR RADIOGRAPHS OF WELDS

AI-511 Unacceptable Defects and Repair

Requirements

Sections of weld that are shown by radiography to have any of the following types of defects are unacceptable
unless the defects are removed, the weld is repaired in accordance with the requirements of AF-252, and the
repaired weld is reexamined in accordance with the requirements of AF-253:

(a) any type of crack or zone of incomplete fusion or penetration;

(b) any elongated inclusion, such as slag, which has a length greater than:

1⁄4 in. (6 mm) for t up to 3⁄4 in. (19 mm)

1⁄3 t for t from 3⁄4 in. (19 mm) to 21⁄4 in. (57 mm)

3⁄4 in. (19 mm) for t over 21⁄4 in. (57 mm)

Where:

Thickness of the weld excluding any allowable reinforcement. For a butt weld joining two members having different
thicknesses at the weld, t is the thinner of these two thicknesses.

If a full penetration weld includes a fillet weld, the thickness of the throat of the fillet shall be included in t.

(c) any group of inclusions in line that has an aggregate length greater than t in a length of 12t, except when the
distance between the successive imperfections exceeds 6L, where L is the length of the longest imperfection in the
group;

(d) rounded indications in excess of that specified by the acceptance of the porosity of the standards given in
Appendix 8.
